RE: CIA Warns of Chinese Plans for Cyber-Attacks on U.S.

Rounding up 1 significant figure would reduce their combat effectiveness
measurably.

The threat to LA is the best available because I don't think they have a
missle delivery vehicle capable of reaching any East Coast cities.

We're off-topic, but I'd say that cyberterrorismis far less expensive to
create than invasion or nuclear weapons.

I put nothing past them, of course theyre not alone, as we all must assume
by now.
Theyve threatened to nuke LA if we interfere with their plans to take
Tiawan by force, and smile and say, kill 300 million of us, do us a favor.
Kinda hard to deal with an enemy like that.
